Day 19 ~ 08/24/16

This is the Tabernacle Organ – it has 206 ranks, totaling 11,623 pipes

View from balcony – this conference center seats 21.000 people, largest stadium of this design

This is the organ in the conference center – a five manual console controls 7,708 pipes of its 130 ranks. We were able to listen to the gentleman in the far left corner at the 2 p.m. rehearsal. This particular person has been playing for 40 years. The keyboard console is crazy.

The Morman conference center has volunteers that offer personal tours. Enjoyed immensely his depth of knowledge.

This speaks for itself, artistic talent and symbolism was inspiring.

Here are the buffalo

Big Al has decided that we should upgrade our traveling accommodations – so not happening
